Ecological pellets from brown coal and biomass
Abstract
One way of renewable energy sources applications in the Czech republic is a cultivation of biomass plants. After the biomass reformation, it is possible to add it to palletizing mixes with coal and delulfurisative additives. Possibilities of brown coal of palletizing with biomass adds were tested recently. The product represents a new coal-biomass combustible wich can be used in some types of boilers with a low pollutant production level (specially SO2).In the past brown-coal pellets weremade with an addition of melted wood mass (wood fibres), wood wastes and mustard straw. Practical tests have shown of an extension the waste field of coal-pellets utilization.
